I certainly hope so - surely they’re not wearing them around the office during work hours?!

Men who wear them awful shaped multi coloured mirrored sunglasses and think they look dead cool . Attached to a glasses string aswell so they don’t loose them
Men when you can tell they've gone into 'smart mode' so have a blazer with a polo neck and their smart shoes on, expecting everyone to collapse with desire as if James Bond has arrived.
Or it’s a black tie event!
There was some fella walking in front of me yesterday and he had tight cycling shorts on with big chunky brown work boots 
Men who go on about the fact they go to work and bring it up in every conversation. 'I'm knackered, I've been to work all day' or 'I'm starving, I've been to work all day' or 'Im just having a beer, I need it, I've been at work all day' you know what I mean, ladies.
Yeah, we get it mate, you go to work, so do we!

I've just thought of something else........ men who are Costa's!
They buy you a bunch of flowers, a birthday present, a box of chocolates, a pizza, whatever, always given with a massive grin and a 'Well I hope you like it cos that cost me £X!'.

Guy came round my place for dinner and brought a bottle of wine, some flowers and some chocolates. My God I did not hear the end of it!I've just thought of something else........ men who are Costa's!

None of it was done for my benefit: before he’d even arrived he had texted me to tell me to expect a surprise or two and taken a photo of them all posed in the back seat of his car (I think for his IG) which meant he turned up late. Proceeded to reveal them on the door step and was a bit put out that I wasn’t more excited.
He kept mentioning them all evening, the fact it was not just any wine but organic wine (which he didn’t think we should drink more than one glass each of) so much better for you.
The truth was the flowers were crap - looked like petrol station ones that had seen better days - and the chocs were generic Thornton’s from the supermarket that way outlasted his involvement in my life (still had some left a year later when I threw them away). Neither were one’s I would have chosen, they had zero thought put into choosing them.
What he didn’t do was thank me for cooking for him or offer to help with the washing up which would have actually been appreciated and cost him nothing. Style over substance and a complete narcissist.
I seen a guy yesterday at the shop and he had cycling shorts on and a baggy vest on. And those sunglasses that have the shiny blue lense. His vest was that baggy it made him look like he had boobs. He also had 2 sleeve tattoos. I cringed a lil bit

Oh my word, yes, that's exactly the sort. I bet he expected you to fall at his feet declaring your undying love and appreciation that he'd actually done the triple for you, I mean, what normal woman wouldn't??!!

He really did, and I’m not exaggerating about him not shutting up about it. I’m surprised he didn’t expect me to write him a thank you note in blood.
Omg one of my biggest pet hates is people that stage these really gauche, OTT set ups for a partner or family member’s birthday / anniversary / whatever and then proceed to take pictures of it and film their reaction for their own social media.
You just know the true purpose for doing it is not for the benefit of the recipient, but for external validation from their Instagram followers. “Look what a great person I am, isn’t ThreeSteaksPam lucky to have me”. It’s cringey as duck. If I came downstairs on the morning of my birthday to a room full of balloons and a camera shoved in my face, I’d be absolutely mortified.

I believe you, I've known some exactly the same, I think they're really tight sods who hate parting with their dosh myself, that's why they go on, and on, and on, and on that they've spent some of it on you. All done in the hope of loosening your knicker elastic, obviously.Done the triple
I worked with a lovely girl who had an extravagant boyfriend. They’d been going out a year and they’d organised a meal out for the first anniversary of them meeting or whatever. A few days before he had to go away for work but promised he’d be back in time for their special night.
When the day arrived he called and said he’d been delayed and wouldn’t make the night, but why didn’t she still go but with a friend instead....or something along those lines.
When she was ready to go out a limo arrived for her and her friend. Instead of going to the restaurant it took them to a local beauty spot with nice views. There was a table and chairs set up, some violinists and her boyfriend was waiting to surprise her. They were served a romantic meal and champagne. (I suppose her friend who was in on it just had to go home). At some point he went down on one knee and proposed. When she said yes there were fireworks set off in the distance.
I haven’t remembered all the details as it was a few years ago now but it was like an over the top Disney movie proposal. It made the local papers.
If I was her I would have cringed inside out and definitely not said yes.
But did they get married/are they still together??
They did get married, I’ll need to do some fb stalking to see if they still are. It was almost 10 years ago.But did they get married/are they still together??
Edited: yep still married and a few babies now too. I feel bad because she was genuinely lovely...and still looks fab. He’s gone a bit large and bald.

I really think you need too ... we need to know if he was just trying to be quirky and memorable or if he genuinely spotted something!
